Landscaping for rental property

[Sanket Murarka]

I have a rental property in Leander Texas and the tenant wanted me to take care of lawn maintenance. I am in Washington. I had given contract to a leander based company for some zeroscaping and new sods etc and they had promised to take care of monthly maintenance and invoice me. Now its tough to track them and they change their commitments. The HOA sends notices about some weeds etc. Tenant is not very happy with the weeds etc as well. I am planning on switching the service to some other company and infact give regular mowing contract to someone and weed control and fertilization contract to someone else. Let me know if you have any cost-effective suggestions for me or any reference company who can help ? Thanks in advance. This has become a pain to manage remotely. But I can understand this might be tiniest problem you seasoned landlords might be facing :) . I just have my first rental property for now :). Thanks in advance.
